(Ida Pro) Find out which functions use the import symbol

Question

I am new to Ida and I need to use it to identify which functions within the executable call one of these. I am trying to find a way a packet is encrypted as a security exercise. Lets say I want to look at the imports window and see these, does that mean that those are the only functions referenced in the executable? How can I find where sendto is referenced? I tried to search it by name but the search takes forever and does not seem to find anything.

If you want to find where the imported function is used, I have in the Import view this MessageBoxA function:

00406160  MessageBoxA USER32

double click on it, it will gets you to the IDA View and you will see something like:

.idata:00406160 ; int __stdcall MessageBoxA(HWND hWnd, LPCSTR lpText, LPCSTR lpCaption, UINT uType)
.idata:00406160                 extrn __imp_MessageBoxA:dword ; DATA XREF: MessageBoxA^r

click on the function name, MessageBoxA, it will becomes yellow, then click X on the keyboard or right click on the function and then choose Jump to xref to operand .... You will go to where the function is used or you will see dialog box if it's called from more than one place.
